Willing to expose myself beyond the sanctity of the voting booth, I will claim my “Other” vote. I did not note an opportunity to specify which game in the online voting process. My apologies if I missed that.

Anyway, I am supporting Wofford @ Furman for the GOTW for historical reasons, both ancient and recent; as well as the potential future implications this tilt could have for either or both of these Teams for the SoCon Championship & Playoffs. Furman may appear to be on the outside looking in & Wofford may appear, based on current rankings, to be in a class of their own among SoCon Teams, but close observers of the SoCon realize that neither of those assumptions may be valid. If Furman wins, we’ll know the latter is untrue & the former may not be. If Wofford wins, we can be almost certain that the former is true, but we will still need a few weeks to prove the latter.

For he today that sheds his blood with me, shall be my brother.

This game is huge for Furman, who likely cannot make the playoffs unless they win the SoCon autobid.

Apologies if that came across confrontational. Wasn't my intention. I was just thinking I saw on a poll earlier that the "other" option was included on the off-chance that the pollster missed an important game, it gave us a way to bring those games to light, like you did with Wofford @ Furman. My interpretation was that if enough people voted "other" and named the same game in the comments, that game would be the GOTW. I could be completely full of $#it, instead of only 90%.

Can the pollster not click on "View Poll Results" for some reason? Even though I have selected to have voters shown each week, I myself have never been able to view them. I am probably missing something simple.
